Traditional live-attenuated or whole-inactivated vaccine approaches / classical methods likely not be rapid enough to respond to a pandemic crisis Focus of developing EID vaccines based on newer gene-based antigen-delivery technologies, some of which have not yet been licensed for use humans.

JE VACCINE PATH/Thet Htoo A young girl in Shan State, Myanmar, proudly displays her freshly inked finger proof she received the Japanese encephalitis vaccine. Immunization campaigns began in November and conclude this week, followed by routine immunization in 2018. PATH provided technical assistance to Myanmar to introduce the vaccine, which reached an estimated 14.5 million children.
JE and vaccines Leading cause of viral encephalitis in Asia ~3 billion people, including 700 million children, at risk An estimated 70,000 clinical cases Up to 20,000 deaths each year, mostly < 15 years 1 in 300 infections results in symptomatic illness. Illness can progress to encephalitis 30% fatality rate 3 JE vaccines prequalified by the WHO: CD-JEV (also known as SA 14-14-2), a live attenuated vaccine (Chengdu Institute of Biological Products, India); JE-CV, a live recombinant JE vaccine (Government Pharmaceutical Organization-Merieuk Biological Products Co., Ltd, Thailand).; and JEEV, an inactivated, Vero cell-derived JE vaccine manufactured by Biological E, India. Australia: live attenuated recombinant JE vaccine (Imojev, Sanofi and inactivated vaccine (JEspect Valneva Scotland Ltd/CSL )

DENGUE VACCINE
Antibody-dependent enhancement (ADE) At a specific concentration, heterotypic antibodies bind but do not neutralize virions of the subsequent infecting DENV type. These virus-immune complexes are recognized by Fcγ receptors that facilitate virus entry and replication in target immune cells. Initiates an immune cascade - results in vascular leak and severe dengue disease
Dengue vaccine CYD-TDV (Dengvaxia,Sanofi Pasteur) Live recombinant tetravalent dengue vaccine 3-dose series on a 0/6/12 month schedule 9-45 years of age living in endemic areas now licensed in 20 countries. Two large Phase 3 trials involving over 30,000 participants aged 2 to 16 years included: VE confirmed dengue, over a 25-months in 9-16 y/o was 65.6% reduced severe dengue by 93% and hosp dengue by 82%. an increased risk of hospitalized dengue was seen in the 2 to 5- y/o in Year 3 of follow-up. Need for more studies identified
Studies used newly developed NS1-based antibody assay applied to blood samples taken 13 months after vaccination to retrospectively infer dengue serostatus at time of first vaccination Dengvaxia Licenced WHO recommend Endemic countries Sanofi New data on risk in seronengative WHO statements Must do screening prior to vaccination Dec 2015 May-July 2016 Nov 2017 Dec April 2018
Dengvaxia New analyses from the long-term safety follow-up: In the first 25 months after the first dose of vaccine. VE confirmed dengue in baseline seropositive participants 9 years of age: 76% (95%CI: 63.9, to 84.0), VE lower in baseline seronegative participants: 38.8% (95%CI: 0.9 to 62.9%) There is an increased risk of hospitalized and severe dengue in seronegative individuals starting about 30 months after the first dose. In areas of 70% dengue seroprevalence, over a 5-year follow-up, for every 4 severe cases prevented in seropositive, there would be one excess severe case in seronegative per 1,000 vaccinees; for every 13 hospitalizations prevented in seropositive vaccinees, there would be 1 excess hospitalization in seronegative vaccinees per 1,000 vaccinees. https://www.thelancet.com/journals/laninf/article/piis1473-3099(17)30752-1/fulltext

For countries considering vaccination as part of their dengue control program, a pre-vaccination screening strategy would be the preferred option, in which only dengue-seropositive persons are vaccinated.
ZIKA VACCINE
- at least 2,400 healthy men and non-pregnant women ages 15-35 years. - part A (Houston, Miami and San Juan) - two additional sites in San Juan, two sites in Costa Rica, and one site each in Peru, Brazil, Panama and Mexico.
a small circular piece of DNA called a plasmid into which scientists have inserted genes that encode two proteins found on the surface of the Zika virus. Once injected into muscle, the proteins assemble into particles that mimic the Zika virus and trigger the body s immune system to respond NIAID website Q and A
